Pacificshore Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 Yama-zuki is defined as the U punch in Nishiyama Sensei's Empty hand karate book. It essentially is the U punch as in Bassai Dai, if memory serves me Di'DaDeeeee!!!Mind of Mencia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaiFightsMS Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 It is kind of an odd posture with punches(bassai dai) or knife hands(hangetsu) extended overheard or at angles from the body. It is called that becuase the posture of the arms and hands in relation to the body resemble the peaks of mountains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
